The comparison of effects between pulsed and CW lasers on wound healing
This study evaluated both CW and pulsed laser therapy in an elliptic wound model in rats. This study is one of the few published reports that evaluates both pulsed and CW therapy compared to a sham control. All laser parameters improved wound healing. Maximal benefit was achieved using CW laser therapy. Optimal dosing for wound [...]
Ex vivo penetration of low-level laser light through equine skin and flexor tendons
This study examined the penetration efficiency of laser light (800 nm and 970 nm) through equine cadaver samples with various hair coat colors–unclipped, clipped and shaved. For haired skin, energy penetration was greatest for light-colored hair and least for dark-colored hair. Clipping or shaving improved penetration. For light skin, the 800 nm penetration was better; [...]
